Notes

Studio recording for 'Artificial Selection' (2018). Gear confirmed for album sessions, not live. Will Swan's main guitar for heavy/riff sections is the PRS Custom 24 with humbuckers. Amp inferred from typical DGD studio setups and genre; no explicit amp model confirmed for 'Care', but Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier is widely reported for Will Swan's heavy tones on this album.

Difficulty

The riff section features fast, intricate picking patterns, complex chord shapes, and requires tight rhythmic accuracy and dynamic control, making it challenging for most guitarists.
